Usually, if you see the mentioning of Lexus at bimmer, it'd be followed by "boos" and what not but i was rather shocked to read what i saw. enjoy.

 

I guess not all BMW owners are narrow minded.
Except I don't agree with the "boy racer" thing.
At 35K, not many "boy racers" can afford this car. That is why they buy Civics and Integras. To be honest, I have seen more riced out 3 series then the IS3.
